  • Variants in tubule epithelial regulatory elements mediate most heritable differences in human kidney function. - Nature genetics (2024) · Loeb GB, Kathail P, Shuai RW, Chung R, Grona RJ, Peddada S, Sevim V, Federman S, Mader K, Chu AY, Davitte J, Du J, Gupta AR, Ye CJ, Shafer S, Przybyla L, Rapiteanu R, Ioannidis NM, Reiter JF · PubMed 39256582

    Kidney failure, the decrease of kidney function below a threshold necessary to support life, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 406,504 individuals in the UK Biobank, identifying 430 loci affecting kidney function in middle-aged adults. To investigate the cell types affected by these loci, we integrated the GWAS with human kidney candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) identified using single-cell assay for transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (scATAC-seq). Overall, 56% of kidney function heritability localized to kidney tubule epithelial cCREs and an additional 7% to kidney podocyte cCREs. Thus, most heritable differences in adult kidney function are a result of altered gene expression in these two cell types. Using

    Gout is a chronic disease that is caused by an innate immune response to deposited monosodium urate crystals in the setting of hyperuricemia. Here, we provide insights into the molecular mechanism of the poorly understood inflammatory component of gout from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 2.6 million people, including 120,295 people with prevalent gout. We detected 377 loci and 410 genetically independent signals (149 previously unreported loci in urate and gout). An additional 65 loci with signals in urate (from a GWAS of 630,117 individuals) but not gout were identified. A prioritization scheme identified candidate genes in the inflammatory process of gout, including genes involved in epigenetic remodeling, cell osmolarity and regulation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) i

  • Genetic analysis of elevated levels of creatinine and cystatin C biomarkers reveals novel genetic loci associated with kidney function - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39927731

    ABSTRACT: Abstract The rising prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), affecting an estimated 37 million adults in the United States, presents a significant global health challenge. CKD is typically assessed using estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR), which incorporates serum levels of biomarkers such as creatinine and cystatin C. However, these biomarkers do not directly measure kidney function; their elevation in CKD results from diminished glomerular filtration. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) based on eGFR formulas using creatinine (eGFRcre) or cystatin C (eGFRcys) have identified distinct non-overlapping loci, raising questions about whether these loci govern kidney function or biomarker metabolism. In this study, we show that GWAS on creatinine and cystatin C levels

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Bloodwork

  • kidney function (eGFR and creatinine) Moderate

    Variant strongly associated with reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate in large cohort of 417,815 individuals.

    Periodic monitoring of eGFR and serum creatinine; baseline testing recommended

  • serum uric acid level Moderate

    Variant associated with increased gout risk in cohort of over 1 million individuals.

    Baseline serum uric acid measurement; monitor periodically if elevated or symptoms develop

Diet

  • reduce purine-rich foods and excess alcohol Moderate

    Dietary modifications can reduce uric acid levels and gout risk in genetically predisposed individuals.

    Limit red meat, organ meats, high-fructose foods, and alcohol; maintain adequate hydration

Discuss with your doctor

  • gout risk assessment and prevention Moderate

    Genetic variant shows population association with gout, an inflammatory condition responsive to lifestyle and medication.

    Discuss personal gout risk; review diet, hydration, weight, alcohol use; consider prophylaxis if clinically indicated

  • kidney function preservation and CKD screening Moderate

    Genetic association with reduced kidney function markers suggests need for proactive monitoring and management.

    Discuss kidney health screening strategy; establish baseline function and periodic monitoring plan
